Artist description Kevin Ostmo and Jake Stroh started the Razor Burns (A.K.A. Thoze Incredible Razor Burns) back in 1992 as an experiment in two very different music styles. Eight years later the Razor Burns have proven that they can blend their musical styles and write some real catchy tunes. You can easily find yourself humming the melodies of the Razor Burns after a few listens. The band is currently supporting their latest CD: "Dead End Sunday". It is a collection of 19 songs that the band claims is 19 attempts at a pop song. Keep in mind that they also have an interesting sense of humor too.Check out their website: www.genuinespiral.com
